QuiXilver Features

QuiXilver is a single, integrated, collaborative solution that simplifies everybody’s daily work life. Team members are guided in their daily activities and always know what they should work on. Priorities and expectations are aligned with their managers’. Managers set goals, distribute work, clearly communicate their expectations and stay on top of everything without having to constantly ask for updates. Communication is structured and in the context of relevant projects and tasks.

Actively guide your team and improve the way you manage. Every team member gets a single, consolidated task inbox and knows what they should work on and, the priority of that work. Tasks are prepared by managers, dynamically created from templates or added automatically (via API) upon events in your system of record.

Manage all your documents online and share them with your team and business partners. All automatically versioned and backed-up, accessible from any device 24/7, secure/encrypted all the way. Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and many other document formats are supported.

The Quixilver Way

Focus

Reduce the massive overhead of context-switches for you and your team. Information overflow results in unclear priorities, anxiety arises when too much is assigned and when the goals are outdated the moment they are set.

Stop expecting too much from 20th century “management by objectives” approaches and start today to work the way modern, agile teams do! Align and agree on up-to-date priorities every 2-4 weeks and rally people around these achievable, shorter-term objectives.

Manage

The most important job of a manager? Let team members know what they should work on, in what order, and coach them when it is required. This is increasingly difficult as business is getting ever more agile. Make your expectations transparent and avoid the disappointment of a team discovering it has been working hard on the wrong things.

Do away with spreadsheets and “management by e-mail outbox” approaches. QuiXilver tracks your task assignments, follows-up with people, creates transparency and supports you and your team.

Engage

Make sure all of your team are engaged for success and get a voice. Provide focus and support your team more effectively by engaging them on the actual tasks they are working on right now – at this moment.

This results in a much more dynamic management style where two-way feedback, coaching and goal settings happens in an agile manner in real-time. QuiXilver can help you run your weekly meetings and let your team members also engage you – simply by updating tasks they work on.

Success

The quality of your service directly influences your competitiveness and leads to higher customer satisfaction. From manager to CEO, it is important to make most of the resources available and ensure that people work together efficiently. QuiXilver enables all managers to define the work processes as a series of tasks in a checklist and ensure nothing gets forgotten and no deadlines are missed. QuiXilver lets all involved know when they can and should work on what. Stay involved by monitoring their task updates & messages in QuiXilver and coach team members when it helps them the most (e.g. if they are working on things with the wrong priority or if expectations have been misunderstood). Remove administrative burden and improve your team’s engagement with well-organized and collaborative task management. That is the underpinning of today’s successful, agile and reliable teams!

About us

QuiXilver is provided to you by Vigience (www.vigience.com) – an enterprise software and service provider founded in 2006 by former SAP mobile business solutions executives. We conceived QuiXilver following our time at SAP where multiple “shared file drive”, Microsoft SharePoint and SAP Enterprise Portal implementation projects in the global R&D teams failed to deliver the desired collaboration effect we had hoped for.

Today, at Vigience, we work out of Tokyo, Zürich and San Francisco and use QuiXilver on a daily basis. This gives us a competitive advantage in terms of work quality and efficiency, and – maybe most importantly – allows us to grow the team fast while maintaining the high quality of work we pride ourselves in. New employees immediately adopt and live our carefully established best practice processes, simply by using QuiXilver. We coach them when they work on the wrong priority or misunderstand expectations – simply by monitoring their messages & task updates in QuiXilver and giving them feedback when it helps them the most.

Create an organization that is agile, quickly adapts to change fast by doing the right things right! Get more done with the human resources you have at your disposal and be best in class in what you do!

Our mission is to help organizations to be top-in-class in business process operations.

Everybody shares priorities, knows what to work on when and no ball gets dropped
